Objective of the Game
Krazy Wordz is a creative word game where players invent words from random letter cards to match given terms. The goal is to score as many points as possible by inventing creative, suitable, or funny words and correctly matching other players' words.
Game Components
- A set of letter cards in different quantities.
- A set of theme cards with various terms/themes.
- A scoring pad or point tokens to keep track of players' scores.
Setup
- Each player receives a number of letter cards - usually 9 cards.
- Each player draws a theme card, which is kept secret. This card specifies the term for which a word should be invented.
- A game master writes down the names of all players on a piece of paper to record the round results.
Gameplay
- Inventing Words: All players invent a word from their 9 letters and place it face down in front of them. The word should relate to or describe the secret term on their theme card.
- Presenting Words: When all players are ready, the invented words are revealed.
- Matching: Each player tries to guess which word creations match the theme cards of other players. This is done by secretly noting down guesses.
- Evaluation: The words are revealed one by one, and each player announces what their word was supposed to describe.
- Scoring: Points are distributed as follows:
- For each correct match by another player, the creator of the word receives a point.
- Players who have made correct matches also receive points.
- Rounds continue until each player has played a set number of theme cards, or the game ends.
Strategic Tips
- Creativity and Association: Try to create words that are both creative and associative with your term, giving fellow players a chance to guess the term.
- Versatile Use of Letters: Consider alternative meanings or combinations of your letters to form the best possible word.
- Bluffing: Consider creating words that deceptively closely describe other possible terms in the game, challenging your fellow players.
Krazy Wordz stimulates creativity and imagination and is ideal for parties or social gatherings. The fun from the quirky and funny word creations always makes for great entertainment!
